Abstract

The present invention discloses a silicon lens array design method. The present invention, in order to solve the defects of high cost and great assembling difficulty in the prior art, has step S1 of selecting a proper silicon array lens; step S2 of grinding the original light-emitting area of the silicon array lens in S1 into a 45 DEG slope; step S3 of disposing a PD side according to the above S2; step S4 of disposing a parallel light side according to the above S2; step S5 of disposing a mirror side according to the above S2; and step S6 of deflecting light after being totally reflected at the 45 DEG slope for 45 DEG and emitting it out after the above steps S1-S5 are finished. The silicon array lens prepares a photoresist mask of a spherical cap with a fusion method and realizes transfer of the spherical cap to a silicon chip with ion beam etching. The interval of each silicon lens is 0.25-0.75mm, the outer diameter of the silicon lens is 0.2-0.7mm, the optical surface of the silicon lens is a convex spherical surface and curvature radius is 3.5-3.7 mm. The present invention adopts an integral design of the silicon array lens and a 45 DEG deflection prism, such that an optical element finishes functions of two optical elements. Therefore, the method has the advantages of reducing cost and assembling difficulty.
